New Mexico USDOT Compliance & Motor Carrier Operating Authority Information
New Mexico is a key Southwest corridor state with the intersection of I-25 and I-40 in Albuquerque. The Santa Teresa port of entry with Mexico has been rapidly expanding, with Union Pacific's intermodal facility driving significant growth. The state connects Texas to Arizona along I-10.
New Mexico's Weight Distance Tax is a separate state obligation from the federal BOC-3, and the Permian Basin oilfields drive heavy energy-sector freight along I-10 and I-25. A new for-hire interstate carrier based here needs a BOC-3 process agent on file before FMCSA activates its operating authority - until it is, the authority stays NOT AUTHORIZED on SAFER.
